The reflection in the x-xis, then:

All x-component is unchanged.

All y-component is changed with respect to sign ( - to + and vice versa).

The reflection in the y-xis, then:

All y-component is unchanged.

All x-component is changed with respect to sign ( - to + and vice versa).

=> Transformation from triangle A to triangle C, changed sign of all vertices
